Tories win Hartlepool

[holywell farmer]

Massive win there, be very difficult for Labour to lose this seat.

 

[br jones]

Must be awful ,waking up in the morning and realizing that you are performing worse than jeremy !

Having read all the euro wiener whiner anti Boris leftie woke nonsense in this section lately, I assumed the Conservatives would have lost their deposits......

 

[glasshouse]

No surprise really.
Starmer is s bigger joke than johnson

 

[holywell farmer]

For starmer it's terrible to give away a seat like this

 

[toquark]

They can’t expect to be elected if they despise the country they represent.

People see right through them.

He needs to abandon all this taking the knee nonsense, and get back to Labour basics...
Beer and kippers at No 10.......Nye Bevan..... donkey jackets.....red flag...... flying pickets....and all that....

The good old days?

An indication of just how unelectable Labour is rather than how popular Boris and Co are. Staggering when you think how badly Labour have performed since the 70s except for a decade or so when lead by a con artist.

 

[toquark]

Labour now represent the middle class state sector. Industrial towns like Hartlepool are a world away.

In West Cumbria you have Labour campaigning against the opening of a new deep coal mine and the Tories campaigning for it. Bonkers.

Starmer is a tory plant
Same as blair was

 

[Muck Spreader]

It would have been more surprising if Labour had won the seat. They should have lost it in 2019 if it hadn't been for a massive turnout for the Brexit party that spit the right-wing vote.

Corbyn was more electable than starmer

 

[br jones]

Quite simple really ,SIR keir starmer hasn't got a clue,and people really dislike people who are SIRS for no reason whatso ever,especially a rich knob like this one

 

[turbo]

Where is ashy! He said that once brexit was done sir keir would walk it ,yet another stunning prediction by the resident on here

 

[caveman]

Sir Starmer taking the knee to Sire (the scallywag) Boris next.

Until they see the country has moved on from socialist policies they are finished, and that's not good for the country we need a modern but constructive opposition,

You mean privileged, elitist, faux socialism?

I do think this is correct, but in order to attract the mass middleclass voters, they need to remove the remnants of Corbyn's loony lefties. If Starmer can't do that he's going nowhere. Bozza has laid is stall out claiming he represents the very wealthy and the rustbelts, just like Trump did. However,in order to do this he has removed many of those traditional thinking Tories who were once the bedrock of the party, mostly with compliant drones.

If no one is going to represent the working class, you are asking for trouble
